Fantastic, well done :) It's a great feeling to be in smaller clothes and even better when it's a bargain!

Wow Tracey!!! What a difference!!! You are doing really well!!!! Bet you are chuffed????!!!!!!
Love sal xxx
 
You can defo see a big difference Tracey, looking good :)
 
I am very happy to report that I have completely stopped snoring and I was one epic, house shaking, wake myself up snorer.
Couldn't understand why as I have lost more weight than this on numerous occasions but after a bit of research have discovered a school of thought that a low carbohydrate diet makes a huge difference - my husband is sooooo happy, said he even had to listen for a while last night just to make sure I was breathing!
Long may it continue!!
 
Thanks everyone I had lost 50lb pre op and it just seems to be going so slow since my op about 18lb in 4 weeks, but I know I would never have got this far without been given the chance of the surgery :)
 
thats fabulous Tracey, you can definitely tell the difference, well done you! xxx

Yay Matra!! thats great news!! I havent asked my hubby if Ive stopped or not yet, think i might have to ask him lol
 
Well done you all! Losers!

Snap!!!! Hubby says I have completely stopped snoring, and he too checks I am still breathing when I am asleep!!!! Didn't know about the low carb diet altering snoring!

Snap!!! I've had a c pap machine n not used it this week as I've lost almost two stone n most off my neck lol, I've not snored at all, not sire if its to do with milk diet or no carbs, but whatever it is, I'm hoping to rid the blasted machine back to the hospital :) will take it with me for op but hope not to have to use it :)

I wish I'd thought of measuring my ankles!!
Maybe that's why my shoelaces didn't seem too short today?

band fitted 16.01.14

It's brilliant isn't it - hopefully it will make for better nights sleep. Who knew snoring can be completely irradiated by reducing carbs! Hopefully an added incentive not to eat too much of them in the future!

Hiya,
As I said previously, I'm a poor loser :( ...maybe it's as we haven't as much as sum peeps to lose & still aren't bak to our pre surgery fitness so not actually doing as much as usual.
Are you keeping a food diary in case you need to present to your provider. I've only lost 9lb post op in 2wks, most peeps lose that 1st week.
I'm also avoiding scales like plague, it's v.frustrating!
